I will be reloading for just my .223 Savage 10fp bolt action but, would like to reload some for my 25-06 later on. Hopefully, I can come up with an all, compatible and decent order today at least for my .223 so I can place it tomorrow. Sure would appreciate help gathering up what all I need as I am lost and hate to order things I don't need or can't use such as wrong dies etc. If anyone would be kind enough and have the time, they could pick out what would be good to order for my needs from an online source that I can order tomorrow I would sure appreciate it. A decent press and any items and brands is fine as I really have no, Idea what to order to be able to start reloading now and be able to reuse the brass :eek: I will be reloading mostly for paper punching and was thinking just a single stage press would be fine? Sinclair is in the process of moving right now. MidWay USA is very high with shipping but, would use if they are the only ones who happen to have what's needed. Thanks for all help! :)
 
You might look at Graf and Sons among many other companies; you'll need a press, dies, shell holder, caliper, case lube, and scale at a minimum. Next up will be case chamfer/deburring took, inertia bullet puller, case trimmer, tumbler and media, case gauge, loading block,
 
You might also want to ckeck out Midsouth Shooters Supply and Natchez Shooters Supply for reloading equipment. Graf's and Midway are great, but these others will give you a couple more options to check price. Sinclair is a great source for specialty and high-end stuff to me. Powder Valley, Widener's and Recob's Target Shop are just a few good sources for components in my opinion.
 
I bought the RCBS Rockchucker Supreme reloading kit that comes with a lot of the stuff you will need. I got it about 2 years ago for $249 on sale. Its about $300 now. It comes with excellent press, great scale, hand primer, powder through, etc. I cant emphasize enough the difference in Quality and especially Customer Service from RCBS vs Lee. RCBS is #1 in customer service of any company I've ever dealt with. For instance I called and mentioned my powder funnel had a hole that was just a tad too large and .22-250 cases were pushing through. He asked my address and sent me a new funnel that day. No questions, no cost, not asking me to send it in. If you reseacrh you will find many similar type stories on here. If this is something you plan on doing for the next 20 years or so, I would go with that kit. Just MHO.
